our lives such as facts. Lastly, procedural memory, which is how to walk,
talk, what your name is lost. As the disease spreads, certain parts of memory
that were formerly undamaged also become impaired, and eventually all
intellectual knowledge, attention, and language capabilities are disrupted.
Can Alzheimers disease be prevented? Through extensive research
that question has yet to be answered. Although, there are many activities to
keep individuals mentally active. Habits that could help better your life style
is dieting, nutrition, mental activities, and excellent physical health. All of
these taken into consideration could keep your mind and body healthy. The
combination of excellent health, social, mental and physical activities will
have a greater chance on maintaining the brain. For example, Victoria has
received an excellent opportunity to intern at Holly Hall Christian Retirement
Home where staff and residents welcomed her warmly. Victoria is in charge
of helping create activities made for the residents in health care, assisted
living and occasionally independent living. As so, she visits residents from
time to time to have conversations with them, see how they are doing, if
they need help with anything, and do individual activities.
The technique Victoria does to keep data of the residents is asking
them if they recall any memories that happened earlier that day or earlier
throughout their early life. Victoria met with two individuals each Friday she
volunteers at Holly Hall Retirement Home. One resident with early stage
Alzheimers disease and the other with final stage of Alzheimers disease. As
meeting with them, she asks a variety of questions to test the brain. One

memory is excellent. No one wants to go through an awful battle of
Alzheimers disease alone.
